taglib questions - 2.3.0

[Uwe Dippel]

Thanks a bunch for the speedy reaction, and the debugging!

Would you care to comment on my second question, about the seemingly new
limit of 512 at searching index data not observed earlier?
I am aware that it is not a bug, though I'd like to know if it stems from
changes within taglib or the calling routine?
